Magic gear is part of #cervelolife, even the T3 is pretty restrictive, and you'll want to dial the tyre/seat tube gap in to the aerodynamic optimum if you're serious 🙂

okay, it is because cervelo p2c (and p3c) are cropping up for sale for cheapish prices (here in Denmark). I know they have been a possible bargain in uk/usa for a while.

this :) arent they made to be ridden with 22mm tubs only ?
-
I think the T3 is quite flexible in gearing possibilities with my 23mm tyres. But then again I'm definitely not serious, most of the time I'm just changing the cog or chainring for a tooth or two and sure af don't care about the aero of the tyre/st gap. Sometimes you could fit a whale in there :)

Cervelo p2c as a singlespeed frame:
From looking at internet pictures it seem like the rear dropout is 27mm long which leaves 17mm of adjustment but if you want to run a 25mm tire you have already used 8-10mm to clear the seatstay.
So there is only 7mm of possible adjustment (so not a whole chain link: 12.7mm)
So how do people do it: use magic gearing only, run a 22mm tire?
